[Verse 1]
You said, see me how I am
I saw beauty captivated in skin
You said teach me how it feels to live
I put your hands on my face and said breathe in
You said, things don't last like this
Death waits behind each kiss
I held you until you felt my soul
I should have ran that night but something made me stay and fight
When I know I should have let go

[Chorus]
I would rather pick up my pieces every night than not to try
I know it's sick, but I still wish that I can teach you how to love
And you'll break my only heart
But in the end, I'll still believe it's not enough
So I will be here, as a lover, as a friend
To prove to you that beautiful things don't have to end
And I will love you, until I teach you how to love
Until I teach you how to love

[Verse 2]
You said, baby I'm so alone
I said I'll stay here all night
You thought that I'd let you go
But, when you woke I was there by your side
It's like, you want to believe so bad that no one could love you like I can
But I'll spend every hour of my life proving to you that I'll be by your side
[Chorus]
I would rather pick up my pieces every night than not to try
I know it's sick, but I still wish that I can teach you how to love
And you'll break my only heart
In the end, I'll still believe it's not enough
So I will be here, as a lover, as a friend
To prove to you that beautiful things don't have to end
And I will love you, until I teach you how to love
Until I teach you how to love
Til I teach you how to love
